The bulk of FHCs I know of have 2-3 user accounts: Admin, Patron and maybe Staff. Individual logins would be far more work then it's worth.
On the administrative computer side, we're still under the directive that all users of MLS must use the same login. Confidential information is not to be stored on hard drives, but physically locked away.
A centralized file storage area is nice, but I fail to see how a system as typically found in a business would be a good idea.
